Job Description
Responsibilities
You will be responsible for the overall progress of fabrication and assembly of our tile grouting robot, managing hardware development from component manufacturing through to site deployment. You will also oversee operations and maintenance of the robot, including troubleshooting, after-sales service, and client demonstrations.
Key responsibilities
Liaise with Contract Manufacturers to manufacture various subcomponents of the robot and modules
Import components to Singapore for final assembly, functionalising, and site deployment or exportation
Ensure appropriate customs paperwork is complete
Oversee, manage, and provide training for interns in Solidworks CAD design, metal cutting, 3D printing, soldering, and mechanical/electrical debugging
Develop and perform hardware and electrical tests to validate robot design
Collaborate with team and external parties to improve robot design while including DFM/DFA considerations
Maintain robots and perform troubleshooting and after-sales service locally
Perform on-site trials and demonstrations for potential clients and investors
Coordinate after-sales service with international distributors
Values/ Culture:
Excited to work in a fast-moving startup environment where your work directly shapes the product and puts you close to real-world operations and clients
Comfortable with ambiguity and able to self-direct in an environment where priorities evolve rapidly
Strong first-principles thinking, comfortable defining success metrics and making reasoned decisions with limited data
Self-motivated and impact driven, with a track record of going beyond the minimum through personal projects, open-source contributions or extracurricular technical work
Excited about robotics and similar technical areas and exploring them in work and other projects
Approach unfamiliar problems with curiosity and a growth mindset. Eager to learn across domains including hardware, software and operations
Our work is fast-moving and iterative, and your role will grow with it. We value people who can take initiative, connect their day-to-day work to the bigger picture, and adapt as our priorities evolve. Particpate in our Employee Share Options Program.
Fabrica Robotics Pte Ltd invented an autonomous tile grouting robot that operates with a single press of a button powered by Computer Vision and Robot Operating System (ROS). The robot is able to grout and clean excess grout off floor tiles, navigating a given area to automate the tile grouting process. Human intervention is only needed to move the robot from room to room, reload grout, and change water, and the robot does not need to be supervised while in operation. Real-time mapping of the rooms (including irregularly shaped corridors and the main living area) and grout an entire apartment with no need to upload any floor plan beforehand. No BIM or any prior set-up is required. The robot is small (under 60cm on each side), reasonably lightweight (roughly 60kg), and can be easily operated by one person and able to navigate tight spaces such as corridors in smaller homes.
Besides, using the robot means that workers do not need to bend down for grouting which may hurt their knees and back over time. Our robot also ensures high quality of grouting as it is consistently able to compress grout within gaps and not just produce a nice surface finish. This will prevent grout from falling out over time leaving behind hollow gaps in tile joints where dirt can accumulate.
We have started selling in Singapore and Australia, started trials in the US, and are looking for distributors in the UK as well. We are co-founded by Cambridge University Graduates and are funded by a Cambridge University professor, amongst various other venture capitals and construction companies.
